In order to conduct a hypothesis test for the population mean, a random sample of 24 observations is drawn from a normally distributed population. The resulting sample mean and sample standard deviation are calculated as 4.8 and 0.8, respectively. (You may find it useful to reference the appropriate table: z table or t table) H0: μ ≤ 4.5 against HA: μ > 4.5 a-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic. (Round all intermediate calculations to at least 4 decimal places and final answer to 3 decimal places.) a-2. Find the p-value. p-value < 0.01 0.01 ≤ p-value < 0.025 0.025 ≤ p-value < 0.05 0.05 ≤ p-value < 0.10 p-value ≥ 0.10 a-3. At the 5% significance level, what is the conclusion? Reject H0 since the p-value is less than α. Reject H0 since the p-value is greater than α. Do not reject H0 since the p-value is less than α. Do not reject H0 since the p-value is greater than α. a-4. Interpret the results at αα = 0.05. We conclude that the population mean is greater than 4.5.
